摘要: The dedicated photolithography machine constraint in semiconductor manufacturing is one of the new issues machinery due to natural bias. In this paper, we propose heuristic Load Balancing (LB) scheduling approach based on a Resource Schedule and Execution Matrix (RSEM) tackle constraint. LB method schedule each wafer lot at first stage suitable machine, according load balancing factors among machines. We describe proposed present an example demonstrate result simulations validate approach.
